In March of 2000, Attorney Shusterman and three other immigration attorneys met with Senator Feinstein of California to discuss the delays in processing for immigration petitions.
The number one immigration service issue is the tremendous delay in processing all types of immigration petitions and applications.
On March 30, 2000, four immigration attorneys from California met with Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) to discuss these delays and what Congress could do to help shorten INS processing times. The four attorneys pictured with Senator Feinstein are, from left to right, Carl Shusterman, Joseph Ching, Charles Miller and Ellen Ma Lee.
Senator Feinstein introduced a bipartisan measure entitled the “Immigration Services Backlog Reduction Act” in the Senate. It was signed into law by the President on October 17, 2000.
